I never fail to be comforted by the calibre of "peers" who make up the jury pool. Thank you all.

the implication seems to be that cos he's never married, had kids and loves his mum then he's the archetypal murderer when i'm certain statistics will show that nearly all murders are committed by men in relationships the victims in the vast majority of cases being their own partners or kids

Hmmm somewhat of a huge generalisation. But get your drift.

Ok, so, hmmmm. I think that we can rule out domestic violence here, unless of course you want to implicate Claudia`s family members. Murder statistics are only relevant when they are relevant if you get my drift. Can we count out domestic murder here? i think so. The unmarried, childless, strong bond to his mother side was only an attempt to flip the the coin from the `no it couldn`t be him, he seems such a gentle soul` suggestion from someone who knows who he is. I also know from previous experience that it can be hard to be accurately subjective about someone who you know, being accused of murder. |

obviously this doesn't look she was murdered by family or friends just trying to point out that just the archetypal loner commits far less murders than family men. that doesn't get headlines though
going slightly off tangent always amazes me that men accused of murdering their wives/partners often seem to turn up with a new squeeze to court. you'd think it would make you slightly wary |

True.

Was talking to a couple of guys who know him quite well, general consensus is that hes a million to have done it. Never seemed to show any interest in women devoted to his mother and did volunteer work for both Mind mental health charity and The Samaritans. Police have said they worked together, but over 500 work at York University. So the only evidence against him is he gave Claudia a lift to work which was probably arranged in the pub.
If this guy is a million, who is the favourite? There are a few suspects but IMO they will not arrest them due to the implications of making another wrongful arrest. The father is not the most popular in these parts. |

It's good to have someone on the inside.

J.o.t
Why is the father not the most popular in these parts ? |

By:
@J.O.TOBIN -- Police accusing papers/people who named him of jeopardising the investigation. 1/3 a balls up.
I'd be sticking my hard-earned on the police having leaked the name hoping it would flush out other near-victims, as happened with the various Yewtree suspects, and are only now rowing back after no other women reported he'd tried to force himself on them. |

this is a shambles

Think there is sympathy for the mother who has always behaved with dignity. The father whho knew full well how his daughter was behaving, and what she was doing, did nothing to stop her. Someone encouraged her to seek financial "compensation" from her suitors who was that. If someone was touching either of my daughters up in front of me I wouldnt be happy Claudias father seemed to encourage it.
Since her disappearance he has supposedly worked tirelessly to help families of missing people, yes his profile has helped keep focus on the case, but he seems to rather enjoy the profile. There are stories of him going into the local pubs and being shall we say ignored to put it kindly. Even on Thursday when his spokeperson said he was in pieces about events he seemed ok to those who saw him walking around York Racecourse. The accused man has garnered a good deal more sympathy in the last week within the local community, with most everybody believing him to be innocent. Its hard to say how anyone would react given what Claudias father has been through but he should bitterly regret how he behaved in his role pf father/mentor. |

Is J O Tobin in the frame?
Chit Chat Nutter, obsessed with raking over the coals of the crime, drinks in relevant pubs etc. Is that enough for a warrant? |
|
By:
I along with most everyone hope that the family can find some closeure, but as Claudias mother says it shouldnt be at the expense of an innocent man. To me and most local people it looks as if it is.

CPS not charging the 4 suspects...
Where do the police go with this now? |
|
By:
Pin it on the local oddball ?
|
|
By:
They've already tried that one!
|
|
By:
They found a local gobshoite to pin a weirdo tag on a completely innocent man (Michael Snelling) who has had his life wrecked by their incompetence. On a brighter note he is in the process of suing the police who having told Sky TV and BBC they were raiding a house in Burnholme Avenue then blamed the public for naming the occupant.
They are still implying the men released today are guilty, Im told the only evidence they supposedly had were their links to Claudia they were her friends FFS. |

On a brighter note off to the Nags now for quiz night
 |
|
By:
To pass it to the CPS they would surely need a 'decent' level of evidence, particularly as its taken the CPS 6 months to analyse the police evidence. (There's a good documentary on BBC4 at the minute about the CPS)
Enjoy your quiz... |

Back from quiz winners
2 of accused local 3 in. There was no way they were ever going to proceed with charges they had nothing on them. Sad all round investigation now costing £800k and they are no nearer catching the person or persons responsible, local feeling is that by concentrating on the Nags has cost them. |
